Stimulants were optional...but advised!
I'm currently setting up an 8 man dubs 2.1 (no cards) speed and am thinking about trying to do it on a clan basis. 4 clans, each clan able to sub in babysitters at will, playing a format that will probably (though far from definitely as in my experience this game is quite open) go past 12 hours and might well go through the 24 hour mark. If you think that there are eight players with up to 5 minutes for a turn, then a 40 minute round would not be impossible...though I would think it would average at about 20 minutes a round. My latest game (in the casual style) went 40 rounds, the longest so far, so the game could go very long indeed if teams are really digging in.
But the game would challenge a clan's ability to organise themselves, work as a team (in a very literal sense) and show just how much grit they really have. CC seems to value flashing brilliance; but endurance, stoicism and yes, sheer grit should not be ignored.
I see no one has found a longer speed game yet...

That being said, I could babysit for another player if it looked like a game was taking a while like this one - I'm not a part of any clan, but if you find yourself in a situation similar to this I might be willing to help out!
Awesome tenacity on all sides, that is truly how the game was meant to be played.
